Purpose: To retrospectively analyze the success of implant-assisted removable partial dentures (IARPDs) according to three types of strategic positions in distal extension areas of Kennedy Class I and II arches.
Materials And Methods: The data included 102 arches in 95 patients with Kennedy Class I/II arches treated with IARPDs with implants in three strategic positions: Type 1a, assisted by P-1a implants on the anterior area adjacent to the abutment tooth; Type 1b, assisted by P-1b implants on the anterior area apart from the abutment tooth with or without P-1a; Type 2, assisted by P-2a implants on the posterior area adjacent to the natural tooth or P-2b implants on the posterior area apart from the abutment tooth to modify from Kennedy Class I /II to Class III. The success was defined as the IARPDs without abutment tooth-related, denture-related, and implant-related complications.

Altering footwear worn during performance of the barbell back squat has been shown to change motion patterns, but it is not completely understood how this affects biomechanical loading demands. The primary objective was to compare lower back and extremity net joint moments in 24 experienced weightlifters (12M, 12F) who performed 80% one-repetition maximum back squats under three different footwear conditions (barefoot, running shoes, weightlifting shoes). Results showed that there was a significant main effect of footwear condition on the knee extension moment (p=0.

Local dynamic stability (LDS) of movement is controlled primarily by active muscles, and is known to be influenced by factors such as movement speed and inertial load. Other factors such as muscle length, the length of the target trajectory, and the resistance of passive tissues through ranges of motion (ROM) may also influence LDS. This study was designed to examine the effect of ROM, which impacts each of the aforementioned factors, on LDS of the elbow.

Local dynamic stability, quantified using the maximum finite-time Lyapunov exponent (λ max), and the muscular contributions to spine rotational stiffness can provide pertinent information regarding the neuromuscular control of the spine during movement tasks. The primary goal of the present study was to assess if experimental capsaicin-induced low back pain (LBP) affects spine stability and the neuromuscular control of repetitive trunk movements in a group of healthy participants with no history of LBP. Fourteen healthy males were recruited for this investigation.

The neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) is pivotal in neural development, regeneration, and learning. Here we characterize two peptides, termed P1-B and P2, derived from the homophilic binding sites in the first two N-terminal immunoglobulin (Ig) modules of NCAM, with regard to their effects on neurite extension and adhesion. To evaluate how interference of these mimetic peptides with NCAM homophilic interactions in cis influences NCAM binding in trans, we employed a coculture system in which PC12-E2 cells were grown on monolayers of fibroblasts with or without NCAM expression and the rate of neurite outgrowth subsequently was analyzed.
